Jan,

I don't believe there is specific net neutrality legislation in Korea, but I may be wrong. We also get buffering with SBS and Netflix but not too many times and thenĀ  not for too long. We get more buffering with Youtube

I may be wrong, but I think this is a holdover from the international data 
charge days across the Pacific. So the model just never caught up.

Does Korea have a net neutrality regulation? That also may be what's different. 
The US may soon be changing too, given the recent actions on net neutrality so 
that service differentiation will be possible.

Quality of service should be a measure, but that's hard, given the variability 
of connections. But it would address the issues around buffering, at least a 
bit. I found my SBS OnDemand buffering yesterday afternoon. I didn't try 
Netflix. It may have buffered, too. Not sure if it was because of network 
congestion or the SBS server. I also had a non-connect alert for an email grab 
from Internode about the same time, so I suspect the network was the issue.
